I took 500 mg's of tramadol within 6 hours ;is that too much for someone who has been on stuff 4ever

i took 500 mg's of tramadol in a 6 hour time frame - i know it's alot but i ran out of my prescribed percocet and needed that much to stop my throbbing pain - how dangerous is that to do just this once

Yes, that's too much Tramadol. The danger is seizures. Tramadol is just as addictive as an opiate, but it isn't an opiate. Too much of an opiate doesn't cause seizures. They just cause death. But Trammies can make you have seizures. So just don't take anymore. I think it's safer to do a Cold Turkey off opiates than it is to use Tramadol to avoid wds.

thanx man - i actually have taken 900 mg's in the last 28 hours - my systemic lupus gets very bad - i know its stupid but sometimes we all just say screw it i cant take this anymore - hey man thanx for the info
